HYPONOMEUTID.E. 



Hyponomeiita funesta, n. sp. 



I propose this name iov fumigata Staint., Trans. Ent. Soc. Lend. 

 (2) V. p. 222, which is in my opinion (though 1 have not seen a 

 specimen) quite distinct from fumigata Zell. by the white markings 

 described ; I am familiar with the true fumigata, which appears 

 never to have white markings.

 and terminal joints black. Thorax white, with two black spots ou 

 each shoulder, two on back, and one posteriorly. Abdomen light 

 ochreous-yellow, three segments before anal each with two black 

 spots, Forewings elongate, costa gently arched, apex obtuse,
